Evening!

My top tip is to remember to cancel the indies.

yes! specially when pulling over and stopping, dont leave em on left and then remember to turn em on right, then turn em off again!

what else was a biatch for me? erm... look out for 20's! that failed me one, had the give way bits in that alternate in priority, so couldnt go fast, was probably going 25, but its a fail. although it meant i got better at riding before i passed my test so wasnt too fussed

also if the examiner says a direction, as long as you do your manoevre safely it doesnt matter if you went the wrong way to what he said (this could possibly be used for a cheaty on a big roundabout or something)

Oh yes! A chap in work informed me of the indicator scenario.

I am going to try and treat it like another lesson. Keep a cool head etc. Nothing worse than having to re-book it for a month or two down the line.

Thank you for the advice!

Cheers. Finally managed to get the training sorted. Spending tuesday and wednesday pottering around on a 500. My guess is the u-turns will be great fun.
